Portal Quotes - Page 5

• If you are forced to confront your fears on a daily basis, they disintegrate, like illusions when viewed up close. Maybe being always protected made me more fearful, and I would later dip cautiously into the outside world, never allowing myself to be submerged completely, and always jerking back into the familiarity of my own life when my senses were overwhelmed. For years I would stand with a foot in each sphere, drawn to the exotic universe that lay on the other side of the portal, wrenched back by the warnings that sounded like alarm bells in my mind.

• La reliquia de antes de nacer Entra un día en el corazón de uno. Sé tan cuidadoso como si sostuvieras una vasija llena, Sé tan gentil como si acariciaras a un infante. La puerta de la tierra debe estar bien cerrada, Los portales del cielo deben abrirse primero. Limpia los brotes amarillos, Y en lo alto de la montaña el trueno sacude la tierra.

• Here is the door of my mom's house, well-remembered childhood portal. Here is the yard, and a set of wires that runs from the house to a wooden pole, and some fat birds sitting together on the wires, five of them lined up like beads on an abacus.

• Creo que hay confusión sobre cuál es el objetivo de las redes sociales. Muchas de las empresas que se caracterizan como redes sociales tienen objetivos diferentes: algunas cumplen la función de crear redes de negocios, otras son portales de medios de comunicación. Lo que intentamos es que la gente se comunique, se informe y comparta información de forma realmente eficaz.

• La atención plena es la clave de todo, y esto es especialmente cierto cuando uno se acerca al portal cultural conocido como "mediana edad". Es entonces cuando la gente cree sin pensar que lo normal es contraer enfermedades y empezar a decaer. Pero la verdad es que la mediana edad es el momento en que la gente necesita despertar y ser mucho más consciente de sus hábitos cotidianos y patrones de pensamiento.

• Poetry at large in America is naturally a reflection of the American system and culture. That's my possibly narrow view of it, or reductive view. But I think for as many portals for critical consciousness in the poetry world and in the American spirit that exist, there's also an over-arching, dominant mirroring, in poetry, of the corporate structure, the capitalist enterprise.

• There's people who feel that, Well, if I could profit off of sellin' sex to an eleven-year-old kid that comes through some kind of virtual portal, then I'm not really doin' it in actuality. I'm just kind of co-signing or fostering it, 'cause it can't be attached to me. I'm like, Yes it can, 'cause people are livin' through their avatar.

• Cinema is a technologically mediated dreamspace, a way to access, a portal to the numinous that unfolded in the fourth dimension, so cinema became sort of a waking dream where we can travel in space and time, where we can travel in mind. This became more than virtual reality, this became a real virtuality.

• Given that ever-broadening array of options and alternatives, as consumers and investors, we are often bewildered. We need guidance. That's where today's brands come in. They are not so much signals about a particular product, they are signals about good judgment, trustworthiness. A big brand, whether it's Schwab or Disney, is becoming analogous to a portal that sells us advice about where we can find great deals.

• Adora a Dios. Reverencia y aprecio a tus padres. Ama a tu prójimo como a ti mismo, y a tu patria más que a ti mismo. Sé justo. Sé sincero. No murmures de los caminos de la Providencia. Así, la vida en la que has entrado será el portal a una dicha eterna e inefable.

• Come when the rains
  Have glazed the snow and clothed the trees with ice,
  While the slant sun of February pours
  Into the bowers a flood of light. Approach!
  The incrusted surface shall upbear thy steps
  And the broad arching portals of the grove
  Welcome thy entering.

• "Religion" can no more be equated with what goes on in churches than "education" can be reduced to what happens in schools or "health care" restricted to what doctors do to patients in clinics. The vast majority of healing and learning goes on among parents and children and families and friends, far from the portals of any school or hospital. The same is true for religion. It is going on around us all the time. Religion is larger and more pervasive than churches.

• I will go forward... I will smile at the rage of the tempest, and ride fearlessly and triumphantly across the boisterous ocean of circumstance... And the 'testimony of Jesus' will light up a lamp that will guide my vision through the portals of immortality, and communicate to my understanding the glories of the Celestial kingdom.

• Your protagonist is your reader’s portal into the story. The more observant he or she can be, the more vivid will be the world you’re creating. They don’t have to be super-educated, they just have to be mentally active. Keep them looking, thinking, wondering, remembering.
